PTHREAD...HEDPARAM(3POSIX)

💖 PTHREAD...HEDPARAM(3POSIX) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the POSIX Programmer's Manual, and I need you to clock something before we even start: the Linux implementation of this interface may differ from what's written here — like, consult the corresponding Linux manual page for the deets on Linux behavior — or honestly the interface might not even be implemented on Linux at all. so. vibe check on your platform first, fr fr 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

pthread_setschedparam — dynamic thread scheduling parameters access, and yes it's filed under (REALTIME THREADS) because she's fancy 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

like, the way you summon her:

#include <pthread.h>

int pthread_setschedparam(pthread_t thread, int policy,
    const struct sched_param *param);

three args, one job, iconic behavior honestly 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Refer to pthread_getschedparam().

that's it. that's the description. she's short, she's mysterious, she's giving main character energy with a single line 💀✨ (ngl the full lore lives over in the pthread_getschedparam() page, so go read her too, iykyk)
